Phobos' Lover
The very next day two guards came to pick up Lily and her mother Trista's few belongings. They walked for a few minutes and soon they found themselves at the gates of the Palace. Though the king was very upset with his son but then he saw his guests coming toward the gate and couldn't believe the beauty of the girls mother. As the kings previous wife had died, in giving birth to their son Phobos, he was looking for another queen and mother for his son. "Hello my lord Orochimaru" said Trista breaking the king out of his thoughts. She was in a low bow as was her daughter. "You may rise my dear... I'm sorry I haven't learned your name." he said turning so he didn't show his blush. "Trista my lord." she said simply coming out of the bow taking her bags respectfully from the guards. "Trista, that is a very nice name. My great grandmother was named Trista." he spoke slowly making sure that he got it right. "That is... nice my lord." she said a little embarassed. "Please call me Maru." said the king. "Yes, my lor.. Maru." Trista said this a little akwardly why was the king letting her call him his name? It just wasn't formal! "Let me take you to your quarters, we have two set up, so if you want your daughter too be with the other children of the castle then she has her own room in that wing." said Maru. "If you don't mind Maru, my daughter Lily and I will talk about it in my room," said Trista quietly. "I don't mind at all Trista." Maru said this carefully so as not to alarm her. Later in Trista's room "Lily I'm not sure about this seperate quarters issue," she had been unpacking for about fifteen minutes and had chosen her words carefully so as not to offend her young daughter. "Mom I really don't have a problem with it but I really want to see Prince Phobos again." Lily said the last part so quietly that her mother didn't hear her. "Well alright but I want to see you at meals and before curfue." Trista said in a firm voice. "Alright mamma but just don't be very overprotective ok." Lily said not as firm as her mother but almost. "Alright but only for you."
